This is my first challenge. With the Snow Moon this Saturday, I will be making Moon Water. However tomorrow evening supposed to be raining here in Nashville so I have already placed containers out to capture fresh rain water to utilize as well. Me being an Aquarius, water is kinda my thing.
Blessed be to all and have a great remainder of the week and a blessed Snow Moon this weekend. 
Here is what it looked like a year ago before the other pines were cut down. I love my neighborhood cause of rhe old growth trees. I will take some pictures and start a thread. It will be called friends of treesš³ @georgia
Oh my stars, those are amazing!!! 
What a shame they cut them down. Thatās so sadā¦

Iām not a bath person. I shudder at the idea of soaking in a tub of water. The thought of any dirt or residue coming off my body and sitting in that just gives me icks. Lol. So I do a shower ritual daily. I get into the shower and ground myself. Then as the water runs over me I repeat 3 times āout with the negative energy, in with the goodā and then say mote it be and sometimes add in a Blessed Be at the end.
Also the end of December I collected some rain water the day of the last full moon and then left it out in the last full moon of the year to charge it. I have been using it to cleanse crystals that can be put in water and have lefts bowls of it out for offerings.
Yes. Ooh. More information. :rubbing hands greedily:
I am definitely a tree hugger.

I am finally feeling like Iām getting back to myself. Maybe I really did just need some quiet, internal shadow work time this year! I found this bottle while I was out the other day and immediately knew that it was my moon water bottle. Iāve also finally figured out an altar that I like and that works for me! I am making some moon water this weekend that I will use in my Sunday Self Care Baths that I take weekly. I always light candles, add something marvelous to the water (lately itās been rosemary and eucalyptus with sea salt), turn the lights off, do a guided meditation with insight timer, and set intentions for the week. Itās such a nice way to get my mind right for the week ahead! The moon water is going to be a lovely touch because I have some big plans that Iām working on right now, great plans that are pushing me a little (a lot) out of my comfort zone and that I have been manifesting for awhile now. Iām excited (and terrifiedā¦ but in a good way!).
Trees are friends. 
Just an idea. I am the same way. Thatās why I take a shower before my ritual baths to cleanse my body first.
Lovely altar 
@Devenne I have tried that but all I can think about is dead skin cells floating off my body. Lol I know, Iām strange.
That makes me think of those little fish that eat your toes in beauty spas. 
yes! Maybe I should put them fish in my bath, then maybe I could handle it
I do similar. I shower afterwards. Sometimes I use oils in the bath as they are really great for scraping off dead skin with this wood and metal scraper I have, or for nourishing my hair. Sometimes, itās just because of the other things in the water other than water, like when salts and florals are present.
Eek! I wouldnāt want one nibbling on my butt. 
You guys are funny. 
I wonder if those little fish could eat the hair off my legs so I wouldnāt have to shave!
Found this. Even cats do water magic.
I like to leave the salt and such from the ritual on my skin. Itās not ever noticable to the touch afterwards. Iāll wait till the next day to shower. I like leaving it on my skin
Lol so cute. Itās funny Iāll be sitting on the couch tom next to me.and Jerry will want toms spot and wack him on the head from the floor like a sneak attack cracks me up
My cat loves to drink foot bath water. And am like the cat saying no!
